Friday is my final day as Dixon Patch's editor. Having covered the Morning View film studio for months, it feels a bit weird to step away while the story is in motion, but that's what I'm doing. (I've accepted a job at UC Davis, and Lindsey Hickman will be serving as your guest editor as I exit).
In an attempt to tie a bow on the coverage I've done, here's every Morning View article we've ever published. Sorry they're not in order, and sorry the formatting is sloppy. I simply searched Dixon Patch for "Morning View" and pasted the results here. Blog posts about Measure N are included:
